this is a full report of what happened last night:


Quote

Investigators were at the scene of an explosion near the US naval support facility in Juffair until early today.

A device exploded inside a large refuse bin at around 9.40pm last night, immediately outside a housing compound opposite the Manama Club, about 100 metres from the facility.

The blast was heard across Manama, but caused little damage and no-one was injured.

Witnesses reported seeing a youth running from the scene and jumping into a car, just before the blast, which brought people running out of nearby buildings, said sources.

An Interior Ministry official initially said the blast appeared to have been caused by a gas cylinder placed inside a waste container.

However, investigators at the scene said at around midnight that it may have been some other form of explosive device.

The blast shattered windows in nearby homes and the Manama Club, according to other sources.

It also blew the contents of the waste bin all over the street.

BDF police, Civil Defence and Fire Service and forensics teams were at the scene within minutes of the explosion and were still there hours later.

Part of the area was closed off while investigators combed the scene.

The patriot radar had locked on to the F-16 and was about to fire. The F-16 was just defending itself..

Hey Tyrant, do you watch any of the Arab broadcasts?  If so can you please keep us up to date as sometimes they get stuff before the American media does.  I tried checking out the Al Jazeer (sp) website and there is no English version (funny though that the help section is in English).

Someone hold my hand and explain to me what that pic is supposed to mean.
Who is this anamoly we call Jumpman? How is he able to do what he does and still survive after years of torment? It seems he feeds on the hate, growing with an intense passion to put unassuming members in their place.

some news has been coming in from iraqi sources during a news breifing, the iraqis say that the republican gaurd, fidaein & the madina brigade have engaged coalition forces in some areas of iraq mostly around nasria and najaf leading to "heavy damages and casualties".
They claim that they have killed a number of soldiers, destroyed a number of tanks (6 as i remember) around 8 apc\'s and a number of smaller vehicles.

some more news for today,
An iraqi missile was fired towards kuwait city today causing minor damages (i thought the iraqis said that they would not against civillian targets in kuwait ::moral of the story: never trust the iraqi government::)

Another sad bit of news was of a reported suicide bombing near najaf, 5 coalition soldiers were killed when they approched an iraqi waving at them in his car, as the soldiers approched the iraqi set off the explosive device killing the soldiers.

Also 4-5 british soldiers have been reported missing, they have been possibly taken prisoner by iraqi forces.
